Something I've noticed from the ECML over the past two weeks, and I noticed we didn't really have a place for such things, hence the new thread.
On Earlsway at the North End of team valley - near the Royal Mail depot - there's what looks like a red and pale yellow vertical stripe liveried Olympian parked up. Anyone know anything about this or what it actually is?

Spotted this morning around Houghton a rattly engined Volvo coach that looked like some sort of youth bus.
It had a livery on the side which looked like it had been designed by kids (I couldn't make it out), but there were Nissan logos on, which would indicate some sort of partnership with them.
As vague as ever!

(15 Jan 2014, 4:43 pm)Dan A plain red President in the Washington area. Looked like it retained dual door config and ex London destys... Anyone have any ideas?
"Unconfirmed reports that 3 ex London deckers have turned up at Ashington depot from Thorntons... If they are for North East then they should replace Olympian 7367 and DAF Spectras 7482/3."

(15 Jan 2014, 7:51 pm)BJ10VUS Maybe has something to do with tyresmoke's comment on the Arriva thread? Possibly could be for Arriva? We'll have to wait and see...

(15 Jan 2014, 8:36 pm)tyresmoke Not sure on that - the deckers at Ashington should be Volvo B7TL / Wright Gemini if they're from the latest batch. Not sure there's any Presidents coming out of London at present. Plenty more DLA's to be dished out though...!
